Rereading Civil War prose Novel. Detailing the Civil war event in marvel. A great read.

Just got my copy of E Nomine Satanis. I struggle with French, it's gonna be a long ride.

Sherlock Holmes

After a lifetime of hearing about this guy, I decided it's time to read the originals. All in all, leaving their lineage out of the equation, I'm not overly impressed.

While his feats may have been extraordinary in their day, given the state of science at the time, I find many of them to be extremely simplistic. Often, for example, the situations will hinge around points that would have been caught by any half-way competent forensic technician, rating at most a few lines of dialogue between said CSI and the main character, rather than being the crux of the whole thing.

Don't get me wrong; the stories are certainly interesting reads. However leaving, as I said, the age of the texts out of the equation, they're not any better than one of the dozens of paperback detective novels that have adorned drug-store book racks over the years.

Yeah, but all those are ripping off Holmes.

Hey, like I said, I'm judging them without cultural and historical context, just on the merits of the stories themselves.

I am between Spy Games, Rise of the Runelords, 4 Hour Body, and Not Taco Bell Material. An odd mix of reads.

I went out and got Neuromancer today... looking forward to that. Was also looking for When Gravity Fails but apparently it's out of print at the moment??

[NinthSphere]

The other two in the Sprawl trilogy aren't bad either. Worth a read if you like Neuromancer, imo.

[DWC]

"Gunship Ace", the autobiography of Neall Ellis, a Rhodesian mercenary helicopter pilot who's the sort of guy that Chuck Norris calls when he needs close air support and an emergency extraction.

I actually have all 3 in DTF, you can can find them on Amazon used pretty cheap.

Just got finished with The Anabasis, Logicomix: An Epic Search For Truth and the Orion Assante/Grendel-Prime arcs of Matt Wagner's Grendel - Someone has been confined to bed post surgery...

[emsquared]

Gotta say, Neuromancer totally exceeded my expectations. I'm not a very good reader (don't find a lot of books that really grab me), but Neuromancer was awesome. Too short, but awesome. Is the rest of the Sprawl Series as good? Now I really wanna go on a book store crawl to find Gravity Fails.

just finished "Turing Evolved"

awesome story.

[farothel]

Currently rereading the Hollows series of Kim Harrison.  Great books on an alternate earth where vampires, witches and weres walk openly amongst humans.
